I made this lesson about the difference between ‘FOR’ and ‘TO’ for you. Why did I use the word ‘for’ in that sentence, and not ‘to’? Watch this basic English grammar lesson and learn when to use ‘to’ and when to use ‘for’.

Hello Ronnie,
you are awsome because I am learning from you to much.could you please explain different between get and take? and also, is it OK to say mam to a young lady or not,I mean in what situation saying mam is OK?

Get means to receive . Eg… “I get my paycheck every Friday.” “I get a gift on my birthday.” “I get a cold in the winter.”Take means you actively grab/reach/transport something. “I take a cookie from the bag.” “I take the salt and put it on my food.” “I take my paycheck to the bank.”Mam is a very formal way of addressing a lady. If you worked in an expensive restaurant or retail shop you would call a lady “mam”. However, in everyday situations, it is much too formal. You can just say young lady or girl, but it is best to call people by their first name in a casual situation!
I hope that helps you!
Thanks for commenting and good luck!

Teacher you are great, Such a wonderful English teacher I have been learning a lot with you, Thanks. You are fun and fantastic.
a big hug and a kiss from Eduardo , Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. please send me an Email I would like to talk to you.(eduardo_dpp@yahoo.com.br)

I love your lessons and the way you explain them . I am also a Teacher in Brazil and my students love your lessons. Actually you have helped my classes too much to illustrate all the subjects I use to teach. Thanks, honey. You are superb!

Hello Ronnie,,,thanks for the explanations,, it’s cool, thanks
And I would like to ask you, what is the differen between Realised and Realized, they are really bothering my mind,
thank you my teacher :)

Hello Cristal99,

Before, I had the same problem with you, I can’t not distinct: realise – realize, recognise – recognize, etc. Although realise is a British spelling and realize is a American spelling, they have same meaning. Hope it’s helpful.

hello Muopmap,,, thanks for your kindness and told me about that, so no mattter which one we use both are coqqect :) now I got ht, thanks

Both are correct but is you want to use proper UK english it’s better to use Realise and Recognise, many words have been spelled differently to make it easier for Americans to spell them for example, Americans spell Center, the correct UK English is Centre, Americans spell Meter, UK Metre.
Both versions are ok to use but only the UK version is true proper English so you need to decide if you just want to use English generally or if it is important for you to know the most proper form of English?

Hey, there is no “most proper form of English”! English may have originated in the UK, but that doesn’t mean British English is “more correct” than American or Canadian English. You can’t use text-speak spelling in a school essay, and formal business English would be out of place at a party—but we teach people about the rules and phrases particular to each of these contexts. Similarly, if someone asks about UK vs. US English, it’s enough to say “This is a British usage” or “It’s only spelled this way in America”!

(By the way, we’re based in Canada, which blends US and UK spelling: “cheque” and “metre”, but “recognize” and “practice”.)

You said > “English may have originated in the UK, but that doesn’t mean British English is “more correct” than American or Canadian English”.
If you read my comment I also said either version is ok to use? But if someone wants to learn Proper english (UK) they are better to learn and use the UK version, after all if you’re learning from zero it’s just as easy to learn the Original proper version as it is to learn the adapted versions?
And yes maybe text speak etc may be accepted in some situations many people may need to pass an exam to allow them entry into the UK and they will need to score high to succeed and their spelling and grammar will be very important.
I have a friends here in northern Ireland who married a woman from Mexico, she has had to sit the exam recently and it’s very strict, So as I said, depending on your reason for learning English it can matter which version you learn to use, the situation will make it more or less important to use proper UK English or not? Thanks for your reply, I’m sure both our points are valid depending on the situation.

This was a great teach from you.
You are simple the vest teacher i had been seeing on my life.
Now I ask this question” how ask good question, give me or give us a good form of the tipical quetions…
yhank you.

Hi Alex, thank you very much for you explanation on the Ordering of Adjective, yet I still not understand the adjective the say about Material and Purpose. If possible could you please make the new video about the words that talk about the adjective, thanks very much again.

Can I use “to” or “for” depending on the meaning I want to convey..? I came across this two sentences: “I wrote the letter for you” and “I wrote the letter to you”.. and according to the explanation, in the first sentece “for” implies that I wrote the letter instead of you maybe because you were not able to or for any other reason… and in the second one, “to” implies that the letter is for you and for nobody else…

Hello Ronnie,
Write you Vladislav from Bulgaria.
Your lesson is Great! I like so much that combine two points of teaching – by one hand how to use TO or FOR, and the other We see a Basic gramma Past, Future and Simple teens. Thank you for all!!!!
P.S. – I don’t know what happening, but I couldn’t get you Quiz lesson and I get on so unhapppy :))) Ok Can you arrangе this FOR (is this correct :)) Me. Take care. I hopping you answer me!

hello, Ronnie, I like your teaching method very much. It is easy to understand the usage as well as the tenses used. However, It is quite pity that I am unable to access to the quiz. Please guide me how can I access to the quiz. Appreciate that I could get reply from you. Thank you. Have a nice day! bye!

Hi Ronni
ur way of teaching is nice and clear. I’d like to know, why I can’t understand what the english native speaker exactly talk about, especialy when they speak long and quickly. how can I improve my listerning ability

Friday, May 13th 2011

Reply to this comment

The first thing is don’t try to comprehend EVERY word the person is saying – if you can get even a few words, you may be able to understand what the person is trying to say! When I lived in Japan, I didn’t understand what the people were saying but I could get a few words and be able to piece together the information!
Body language is a great help too – look at the speakers face and eyes – you can tell by the person’s expressions their emotions!
It is difficult too because we use a lot of slang (esp. young people). You should try to learn slang and idioms!
If the person is talking to you, just ASK them what they meant! It is a great way to communicate with people and perhaps they will use different words that you DO understand!
The last thing is just listen everywhere you are – your brain will absorb it and you will be able to understand! Watch tv shows or movies with English subtitle, and listen to music with words on youtube. The radio is TOO DIFFICULT; they speak too fast and use too much slang!
Good luck!

Hello my best teacher Ronnie.First of all i hope you’re doing well.I have just read this great and simple words you said to explain how can we improve our listening ability,really personally i’ve used the and they’re so so helpful.THANK YOU !

Dear Ronnie,
There was a mistake the lesson you were teaching here.Here is the link.Will you please check this link again.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTQb42w7oig&feature=relmfu
Passive–Active
example was:I eat lunch
and your answer was:Lunch was eaten…
But the example that you gave here was The simple tense so Answer should have been passive(simple tense)which is:Lunch is eaten(by me)if the example was tense then your answer would be correct.
which is like:I ate Lunch(Active)
Lunch was eaten by me(Passive)
Thanks….

“Lunch was eaten” is correct and can mean lunch was eaten by a group or by one person, although it would normally be applied to a group as one person would probably say I ate lunch.

Hi Italo, I do not think that you have to try to change your accent, the most important thing is that we use English to communicate and if people understand what you gonna tell them. It is nice if you are perfect, I mean it is nice if you can try the native voice (American or Englis),if not that is still ok, communicative effectiveness is more concerned. I think so and good luck.

HELLO RONNIE!!!!HOW ARE YOU DOING?IT WAS A VERY USEFUL ENGLISH LESSON.IT HAS BEEN 5 MONTHS SINCE I STARTED LISTENING TO YOUR LESSONS AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT MY ENGLISH HAS IMPROVED A LOT:THANKS RONNIE.I DON’T KNOW HOW TO THANK YOU.YOUR PUPIL___CARLOS

Hi Ronnie,
Thank you so much for your teaching on To and For. I´m Brazilian too and I can tell you, we have loads of doubts related to prepositions, especially To and For. I think this topic was all covered and I have no more doubts :-) Thanks a million!

nice video, but I have still a question about using “to or for”. Yesterday I saw an English movie where they used the following sentence “It’s very important to me!” Why is “to” used in this case, and not for? I do not see there any kind of exchange. Could I also use “for” in this scentence?

This lesson was very helpful for me as a non-english spoken background person. I have got very big advantage from it. But, there is one question for you? is there any previous lesson about on and upon as they are confusing me.

There is no lesson about on and upon…but upon usually means that you are on top of something. On has many different meanings!

Hi Ronnie , I have a question , which one is better to learning english
watching video with native language sub or
watching video with english sub ?
I have another problem , I can undrestand english but when I want to speack in english all words and phrases abandoned me !

Iam so glad that these lessons are very useful to improve speaking english in a better way and this way only through engVid and also learning with teacher valen and teacher Ronnie thanks a lot from siyal

Hi, I`m an english teacher in south of Brazil, and I was with some doubts about students questions, when I found this website That is a such nice one. Someone asked me about To and For… and I said hehe… I tell you next class, and then I just Found the answer. Awesome explanation. If you don`t mind I`ll pass that FOR my students!
Thanks, Take Care!

Hi Ronnie
First of all thanks for all your lessons.
There are a few things that I’d like to mention. Some of the examples you’ve showed on this video make think of ‘it depends on the situation’.
For example: I sing for you. (you sing for someone for many different reasons) ok.
Now if someone says: I sing to you. Wouldn’t it be correct as well, simply with a different meaning?

Reply to this comment

Yes! You are correct – it does depend on the situation. Some can use both – there are always exceptions to everything in English – that is why it is so hard to learn!

Hi Ronnie . Again i would like to ask you something relating to comprehension skills and composition skills . Can ya tell me how can i improve my these fields cuz ya know my exams are near so please quickly tell me . It will be a pleasure for ya to help .

For listening you should try to listen to English tv shows with subtitles, and English music with the lyrics. Also it is not important to know EVERY word someone says – just the main words – your brain should be able to think about what the person has said!
For writing – I suggest you write a little in English everyday!

Hello, Ronnie. I want to thank you for your lesson. But I still have one question to ask you. What is correct: “It’s important for me or to me?”
Once I asked my American penpal, and he replied that “It’s important to me” is correct. But, after watching this video I thought myself that he was wrong. Am I right or wrong? Thank you.

It depends on the context – if you use for or to. Ex…Water is important for me (to live). Dogs are important to me (because I like them).
English is very confusing and it is difficult for me to give you a concrete answer/example.
I think that we use “important for me” when it affects our life – health, education, etc.
“important for me” is more of your opinion on how much you value something.

Hi dear teacher! Your hair is perfect today! Well, I´m here to thank youthe lesson. You made it FOR me! I always confuse these words! Can I make you a question? When I was a child I learned a song: “Hello my dear teacher, how are you? I´m me so very happy TO say hello TO you.” Is the use of TO correct here? I´d like to know to teach my students!You´re in my heart! Celia!

Thursday, July 28th 2011

Reply to this comment

Yes, the use of “to” in the song is correct! It should be I’m so very happy – not I’m me so very happy.
You should say “Can I ask you a question”…not can I make you a question!!!!

Hi Maam Ronnie how are you today! I have one thing to ask you with regards how to correct use of PAST TENSE! FUTURE TENSE! & PAST PARTICIPLE! because for me I am very confused on how to correct use that word… please create a lesson or technic

Hi ma’m Ronnie! Your very generous! Thank you FOR the lesson. But i have a question here, it seems a little irrelevant but i hope you would consider it. When to use believed and believe. Thank you very much!

Believed is past tense. Believe is present tense!

ITZ REALLLY GOOD LESSON RONNIE,THNX DEA,it helped me alot,i thought that i know the difference between them well,but i was wrong,when i saw it,i Came to learn the major differences between them,dear i have a little question,which sentence is correct,I am late to work,or i m late for work?

Hello Ronnie . . . I hope you are well.
In my opinion, you are the best teacher.
You can clearly explain the grammatical rules to me.
Everything you teach is that absolutely excellent.
I can also understand more English Language every time
when you teach a new lesson.

Great!!! but i have a doubt: For example, Peter can´t talk and he must do a very important presentation, so i am very nice with Peter and i talk with Peter: “Peter, i am going to talk FOR you in the presentation…” so, is it possible use FOR in that case? Thanks!!!!

i was writing to one of my friends i i put: you are a very special person for me but then i was thinking if is not also correct to say: you are a very important person for me!! which one is wrong and which one is correct? in this kind of sentences what are the rules in the usage of to and for?

Thursday, October 6th 2011

Reply to this comment

sorry i put the same i was trying to ask is it also correct to say this sentence in this two ways: she is very important to me or she is very importat for me thats my question

In this case, you DO NOT need to put “for me” or “to me” because YOU said the words!
All you need to say is = “You are very important”! The listener/reader will already understand that is it for her!!!!

what a magnificant website and what an amazing teachers! i explored it yet and i really loved it. i have a lot of questions =) one is that already, when do you english speakers use ‘a lot of’ and ‘lots of’? can you explain?

Saturday, October 8th 2011

Reply to this comment

We should say “a lot of” but we are lazy when we speak so we say “lotsa” Ex. I have lotsa homework.
We say this instead of saying much/many!

hello..tnx for the video..it really helps me a lot..but could you help me when it comes to in and on? for example, i say ” i beleive in you ” should i use on insted of in? or what? im confused whether to choose on or in..plss help me here is my email..kianochino@ymail.com ty ^^

You cannot say I believe on you! “I believe IN you”, we can only use for things that may not be real like Santa Claus or God.
If we talk about regular people, we say “I believe you”!

hi, i’m an english teacher from Brazil and my students are still having a hard time understanding the difference between To and For, how can i explain “i have a test for next week” it’s not really a benefit, and also ” i want to go out for dinner and we went out to dinner” that’s confusing to/for them, i know the difference but they don’t see it. Is there a better way to clear that up?

Friday, October 14th 2011

Reply to this comment

“i have a test for next week” is wrong. You need to say I have a test next week.
i want to go out for dinner and we went out to dinner = this is an example in which English grammar has many many rules and these rules are broken or do not apply to EVERYTHING. Tell you students that….. It will help them ….Don’t think about the grammar too much – it will make you and your students crazy …… sometimes there is no logical explanation for English!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello ronnie…i really like your teaching you are a great teacher who injects the lessons to students in a easy way….
I have a doubt ‘English is piece of cake to/for me’ which is correct to or for..plz correct the sentence & correct my mistakes in this msg…
thank you

You don’t need to say either “to or for me” – because you are the speaker, I already know YOU think it is easy.!

ok! dimitra from greece
and…
actually the “to” in greece means “για” and it shows purpose
while the “for” does not mean “για” and it cannot be translated i english exactly and clearly
so we learn it knowing the correct syntax.
thank u!

Thank you very much Ronni,realy i like this site and i can understand your teaching ,this is second time for me i visst this site and i saw your way for teaching ..please tell me how ican see all your lisson one by one because you didnt wrote the lissons no.or tell me how ican start from first lisson still now and contniue with you evry day …with best regards

Just click on “teachers” at the top of the page and choose “Ronnie”. You can see all my videos!

Hi .
I like your teaching style; I think you’re an excellent communicator.
I was watching your lesson, when you were explaining the different between To vs. For.
The rule you’ve given ( transfer- To, benefit-For).it may only work for few cases, I would suggest that just to be on the safe side, you should mention that there are lots of verbs which are always followed by “to” Talk, Speak, Go, Listen,…………..
And we shouldn’t forget about the “Infinitive of Purpose”. “I switched my pc to listen to your lesson” I think the beginners should be told these rules which I’ve suggested at their early learning stage.

hi Ronnie,i have a question. i bought it for you or i bought it to you. which one is correct? normally we say i bought it for you.but according to your explanation for means a benefit. so how can we use “for” for this sentence because there is no any benefit for other person. just buy something only. thanks amani

Hi Roni,
This videos are very useful and they are great.I am confused with the 3rd question(Bob gave a gift — Furgus). Isn’t that gift a benefit to Fergus??? please help me out with this.

thanx

Friday, December 2nd 2011

Reply to this comment

Yes, you are correct a gift can be a benefit but it is the TRANSFERRING of the gift (item moves from A to B), that makes us use “to”!
English is very confusing and there are so many “rules” that are not always 100%!

Hello my best teacher Ronnie! First of all i hope you’re doing well.Really i was confused with these two prepositions”to”and”for”,but now the idea of “TRANSFERRING” AND “BENIFIT” will make an end for my confusion.
What will be the right word to use in the following situation? “The excercice was so complicated(for)or (to) me”.Actually i was looking for the any transferring or benifit but i could not.

Ronnie, nice to meet you :)!
I´m from Brazil but I´m living in Chile due my job and I intend to be here for a long time.
I think you were born TO teach, because you are absolutely easy, clear, dynamic and almost actress. Ah, so beautiful to complete the adjectives! Soul and physical are necessary, right?
Today I was teaching my daughter some lessons of English and it´s was appropriated your lessons mainly about Y and J pronunciations due the problem she has with her Hispanic teachers at her school. Just my two teachers at the college where I´m studying translation from English to Spanish has a perfect speaking, because they have lived in the USA, the rest have a problem to pronounce the words beginning with R,Y and the words as SH, of SHE, SHIP, SHEET, CH etc. It sounds like a TI, you know?
Well, I think you could comment about it if you did not yet.
My best regards to you. God bless you.

Wow — that is great that your daughter is learning too — I LOVE TEACHING KIDS!!!!!!!!!
The best way is to get her into English music too!!! I’ve done a lesson on the TH sound.
Best of luck to you and your daughter!!! What is her name?

Hello Ronnie!
Thanks for your kind words. She loves music and me too!
I’ll find the TH later in my house, because in my job the videos are blocked. Her name is Giuliana, original from Italy.
Tomorrow will be my exam and I’m sure that I’ll be take a good mark.

Well, i think it will remain the same situation when you say” the test was difficult” or “the test was difficult for me”,and of course as u’ve said,in the 2nd sentence you’re expressing an opinion,so you can begin with” For me,the test was difficult”.
Once again,we should know that there are some exceptions,and it depends on what the talker focuses on,BENIFIT or TRANSFERRING,For example we can say:”i gave a gift for her”(BENIFIT) and also” i give the gift to her”(TRANSFERRING).

Respected mam ronnie,
i really appreciate your teaching style as you know that when we see any thing in a friendly way so we pick it very fast and we don’t forget it. your teaching style is just like BRAIN “STORMING”

Hello teacher thanks for the lesson
Ali did a great job for me.
JOhn gave a nice present to Juli.
They go to library for reading informative books.

Bon gave a gift to Fergus.
suppose if Bon gives some one else for Fergus. can we use
Bon gave a gift for Fergus.

You can never use to/for = verbing.
read and learn is a transfer of information = to
suppose if Bon gives some one else for Fergus. can we use
Bon gave a gift for Fergus = this is wrong. You would have to say “Someone else gave a gift to Fergus, from Bon.”
Your other sentences are very good! Great work!

Thank you very much T- Ronnie .
before I listen to your vedio , I was big confuess when use to – for , but know Iam ok .
– I hope that you are here to give you apresent .
– I hope that you are here so to bay agift for you .
you are the best .

First of all, thanks a bunch for making such clear videos, they certainly help a lot!
I have a doubt… How do I explain the use of TO in sentences like “happy birthday TO you”? Do we use it because we are “tranfering” or “sending” wishes to the other person?

Ronnie I appreciate all the time that you put on every single video. Your efford, your teaching.. You’re Amazing, Don’t let us fall, keep teaching us as you usually do. Your humble work makes a huge difference to each single person in here. For us trying to learn a new language is a big challenge.. TEACHERS! Thanks for all your hard work… I’m still learning… Bonne Chance, À tout à l’heure.. :)

How about these sentences :
1) He was really nice TO us.
2)She’s responsible FOR this whole mess.
Could you explain that ? Thanks!

When we use the word nice we cannot say “He was nice for us”. We must use TO!
Also, you cannot say responsible to = we have to use responsible for! Sorry I cannot explain WHY – it is just English grammar rules!

Hi, Ronnie, how are you hope you are fine well while speaking i confuse in two things first one where i used the with and where i used for and to as well so describe it all the things for me and 2nd one is where is use have??????

hello maam, it was a pleasure to watch this video. now it is clear to me the differnce btwn to and for.. i have a question. when we give smbdy a card or any other gift, we write on it ‘to bob’ or smthng like that. it is a kind of trasfer,but it does him good also like he feels happy to get it. it may be a type of beneficial. so why don’t we wrte ‘for bob’? plz tell me..thnk u..

Hai teacher,
i like your way of teaching… i learn a lot from you. i want to speak english perfectly. how can i improve? can you teach me about “have been”.
“would you like to have a cup of coffee” is it correct?
if there is any mistakes please correct me..
thank you teacher. god bless you

Reply to this comment

“Would you like to have a cup of coffee”. Yes! This is correct!
Have been = present perfect. Search Engvid for “present perfect”.

Every name is called a noun As field and fountain, street and town; In place of noun the pronoun stands, as he and she can clap their hands; The adjective describes a thing, as magic wand or bridal ring; the verb means action, something done to read and write, to jump and run; How things are done the adverbs tell, as quickly, slowly,badly,well; the preposition shows relation, as in the street or at the station;conjunctions join in many ways, sentences , words, or phrase and phrases; The interjection cries out ,Hark! I need an examination mark.

Ronnie thank you very much for your explanation and the lesson. I’m learning a lot! I’d like to ask you to prepare a lesson with real Enlish ’cause I don’t understand a native speaker very well! How to lern with movies or songs? Please, help me!!!!

Thanks again!

When you watch a movie in English, watch it with Portuguese subtitles – this way you can study listening and pronunciation!
With music, listen and read the lyrics (words) to the song!

hi,
how are you? which is the correct usage?
(1) Proceed further in processing the job offer letter
(2) Proceed further for processing the job offer letter.
I feel that (2) is correct.. what is your opinion on this?

I would say proceed further to process the job offer letter. To use to of for depends on the situation – if you are physically moving to process it , you would say #2. If it was not a physical movement, I would use #1.
